Garry-
I can't speak to your problem specifically, but you may actually want to
try to make the HP speak directly to the RCX, skipping the IR Tower
altogether. Someone claimed to have done this months ago, but never
posted any code, so I have no idea if it ever actually worked or not. Try
to look for it in the archives. I can't find it, unfortunately, but I
know it is there.

Subject: Serial Comm with RCX

I am trying to connect my HP49 Calculator with the Mindstorms IR
Tower, I thought I had got the protocols right, the Green LED lights when
I send the packet but nothing else, no reply from the RCX. Am I missing
something?. Protocol 2400 baud odd parity, I am using an algorithm
based on the description of the packet protocoll on the mindstorms internals
page.
Regards, Garry Hayne
